What a Long Strange Year It’s Been…

Extra brownie points to anyone who knows the musical reference in the title.🙂

It has been quite a year. It’s been over a year since my last post, but it’s not like I’ve been busy or anything. I just moved across country, started a new job, completed a massive reorganization, oversaw the hiring of about a half dozen new staff, renovated our office suite (which included facilitating the move from private offices to an open-concept, office-less workspace), drafted our strategic plan, and got promoted to vice president. Somewhere along the way, I was named as a “rising star” social CIO on Twitter, wrote a reference guide on classroom technology, and was appointed to the NITLE advisory board. So like I said…

Plenty of time to blog. Or not. Which is why I was pleasantly surprised to have Some guy named Rae… included as a 2013 “must read” higher education IT blog. What an honor! And a great reason to do something I’ve been meaning and wanting to do anyway — start blogging again.

So I pledge, dear readers, to write at least once per month for the next year. Maybe more, but certainly no less. And with this post, August 2013 is done…right?🙂
